THE city elections in Chicago, Cincinnati
and St. Louis were contest between law and
order and their opposites. The contest took
different phases in the different cities, but it
was essentially the same in ala determined
effort on the part of the better classes of COM
munity to break up the rings, clean out the
filthy places and reform government general
ly. The work was well done, but it required
a great effort. It could have been accom-
plished far more easily long ago, before the
rascals and corruptionists were so strongly
fortified. The lesson for indianapolis and
other cities is plain. Rascals and corruption
lists should not be permitted to fortify them
selves in power. Better yet-they should not
be permitted to obtain it. Prevention is cas-
Ter, as we'll as better, than cure. Abuses hard
en- with age, and frauds grow stronger and
holder with practice. In public as in private
morals, the beginnings of evil are to be with
stood. 1t is easier to keep rascals out of pow
err than to turn them out.
II hear lion in the lobby roar; $50
Say. Mr. Speaker. shall we shut the door
And keep him there. shall we let him in
To try if we can turn him out agains"
He is roaring loudly in this city, and has
been for some time. The grand jury now in
session will, it is to be hoped, shut the door
against him, and perhaps at the same time
open another door for him to enter. Such
animals are best Gagged.

Interstate Commission Suggestions.

Chairman Cooley, OF the Interstate com
lions likely to arise among people at large
in letter to complaining merchants on
the limits and powers OF the commission.
He suggests: Congress would not pass a
law conferring such summary and autocrat-
lc powers as to enable the commission
not only to correct a road for the future,
but also order the refunding OF over
charges. Furthermore if the commission
should try to respond to irresponsible
calls at large, it would find cases accumu-
,ating SO fast that the law would be made
Ineffective and unavoidable. The commits
tion preceived this very clearly at the out
set and deemed it absolutely necessary to
eequire that complaints be verified in
proofs Of genuineness and good faith, and
they recite sufficient Of the facts to make
out an apparent case OF injustice, which
would fairly justify the company being
called upon to answer, and when these re-
luirements have been brought to the
attention OF those from whom communi.
cations were received a very large proper
tion OF them were not heard from further.
Sometimes we have reason to believe this
s because they have discovered that they
were mistaken in the facts, and sometimes
because they have learned that the law is
not what they supposed, while in some
cases the grounds OF complaint were OF
such trihing Importance that when it was
ound the case could not be passed up
On summarily and ex parte, the person
inding fault did not think it worth while
